"This is really devastating. I think a lot of people, a lot of fans out there have looked at players less like people because of fantasy football and things like that. You go and say 'Oh, man this guy got hurt,'" Sherman told the Seattle Times. But you aren't thinking 'Hey man, this guy got hurt, he's really physically hurt and he is going to take some time to recover and it's probably going to affect his mental state and now he has a long rigorous rehab.' You are thinking, 'Oh man, he's messing up my fantasy team."

Sherman's reaction was triggered by an ankle injury to running back Chris Carson in the team's Sunday night game against the Colts on October 1.

"When the fantasy football numbers need to be what they need to be, then the league needs to do what it needs to do to get it done. This is a money-driven league, so whatever sells the tickets is gonna sell the tickets," Sherman said.

For all the backlash Sherman has shown towards fantasy football, it makes his sponsorship with partnership with draft.com puzzling.
